Test centre address: UHI College (Lochaber College), An Aird, Fort William PH33 6AN
Fort William's driving tests run from the college building at An Aird, near the Nevis Centre, a short walk from the high street. It's a small centre, and learners come from Fort William, Caol, Corpach, Banavie, Spean Bridge, Roy Bridge, Kinlochleven, Glencoe and Strontian.
374 car tests were taken there in a year, and it's one of the best centres in the country to pass at: 65.5%, above the 50% across Great Britain.
The nearest other centres are Ballachulish, Mallaig and Oban, all a fair drive away.
How long is the wait at Fort William driving test centre?
If you book at Fort William on your own, the first week with a good choice of free dates is 23.8 weeks away. That's about the same as most test centres.
You don't have to wait that out or keep checking yourself. We usually find learners an earlier test date within 1 to 2 weeks of signing up, and often within a few days. The test itself may still be a few weeks away, but it's earlier than the date you'd get booking on your own.
